Abstract: The invention relates to a droplet separator unit for separating liquid particles from a gaseous stream for flue gas washers and similar installations, said unit comprising a droplet separator. The unit also comprises a device that is located and connected downstream of the droplet separator at a distance from the latter, said device extending over one section of the surface of the droplet separator and being used to reduce the flow speed of the gaseous stream in said surface section of the droplet separator. This permits the flow speed in the droplet separator to be homogenised, thus improving the performance of said separator.

Abstract: This invention is a method to determine the condition of rotating equipment, namely drive spindles, to enable the timely maintenance or replacement of same. The method uses an electrical signal from a vibration sensor mounted on part of the drive train to measure the level of vibration energy when the equipment is rotating under loaded and unloaded conditions. The relative vibration under the loaded and unloaded conditions is used as an indicator of equipment condition. Typically there is more vibration under load when the equipment is in good condition. When the level of vibration under the no-load condition matches or exceeds that seen under load, the equipment needs to be serviced or replaced.

Abstract: In a process according to the invention and an apparatus according to the invention for the coating or modification of a surface a flow of a first gaseous phase or of a first aerosol comprising one or more precursor compounds is guided along a heated filament so that the precursor compounds are converted into reactive compounds. Alternatively, non-activated particles are guided along a heated filament so that these are activated and are then combined with a gaseous phase or an aerosol comprising a plurality of precursor compounds, so that the precursor compounds are thereby converted into reactive compounds. The reactive compounds formed according to at least one of the two aforementioned steps are guided onto a substrate that is exposed to atmospheric pressure, so that a layer is deposited on the substrate or its surface is modified.

Abstract: A method for determining a spatial property of an object includes obtaining a scanning low coherence interference signal from a measurement object that includes two or more interfaces. The scanning low coherence interference signal includes two or more overlapping low coherence interference signals, each of which results from a respective interface. Based on the low coherence interference signal, a spatial property of at least one of the interfaces is determined. In some cases, the determination is based on a subset of the low coherence interference signal rather than on the entirety of the signal. Alternatively, or in addition, the determination can be based on a template, which may be indicative of an instrument response of the interferometer used to obtain the low coherence interference signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a power supply arrangement ( 10 ) comprising a first power supply ( 11 ) which produces a first output voltage and supplies it to a first device ( 12 ), e.g. an AM/FM tuner, a receiver or some other equipment sensitive to switching operations, and a second power supply ( 14 ) which produces a second output voltage and supplies it to a second device ( 15, 16, 17 ), the second supply being operative when the first device is off. The power supply arrangement further comprises a control means ( 18 ) arranged to operate the second power supply. Typically, the control means turns the second power supply off when the first device is operating, and switches the second supply into operation when the first device is inoperative. The present invention enables a power supply arrangement which is suitable for use with an EMI sensitive device, which is cost-effective, small, highly efficient and has low standby power.

Abstract: An information recording method enables the precise formation of a recording mark on a recording layer having a high light transmittance such as an L1 layer of a double-layered optical recording medium. The information recording method uses the following recording strategy. A laser beam is pulse-modulated so as to create a pulse series including a write pulse of a recording power and a cooling pulse of a base power. Data to be recorded is modulated to have a length of a recording mark along a track of the recording layer. At the same time, the length of the recording mark is made to correspond to an integral multiple nT of T where T is one clock cycle. An nT recording mark corresponding to nT is recorded by using the same number of write pulses and cooling pulses when n is 4 or larger. Moreover, an average width AveTc for a single cooling pulse width Tc is set to satisfy: 1.0 < AveTc/T < 1.6 and a total pulse width SumTc of the used cooling pulses is set to satisfy: 0.5 ¤ SumTc/nT ¤ 0.8.

Abstract: A messaging service is described which provides application agnostic and cross-platform messaging. Senders compile message content components and specify message preferences. The messaging service calculates a utility and cost of sending the message over different types of communication channel. A communication channel is selected using the cost and utility information and the message service formats the message content components for the particular communication channel. The message is then sent for example, as email, SMS, MMS or other suitable type depending on the selected channel. The utility is calculated using the sender message preferences, communication channel attributes. sending and recipient device attributes and preferably also, but not essentially. preferences of the recipient.
